Oh my, god forbid you leg go of your bag for 2 seconds to bag a plane. Also, "hey Siri, open passbook"

Yes, one to go down in the history books of douche kind

His complaint was that he was running thru the airport with a bag in one hand and the Apple watch on the next
In order to get his boarding pass on the watch he had to put the bag down and use both hands on the watch......
Lol a Nilay, what a sucker. He couldn't of just made one remake and left it alone. I hope he gets reprimanded for poorly representing the blog he is a part of.
Most of the writers @ The Verge used to use iPhones, and most of them use a MBA, due to their reader's demographics, and vocal posters in the comments section, they all seem to carry 2 phones now, one iPhone and one Android, and their articles have softened considerably towards Android phones/devices, since they can't afford to piss off 80% of their readers.
My only complaint about his review was that he kept stating that the UI was very confusing. After a few minutes with the watch, I knew where the glances, notifications and other elements were on the watch. It's not like after each swipe, the UI randomly rearranges. lol.
Yes, after 2 days, I wonder what he was thinking, as well. I'm sure I haven't figured out everything yet, and there are some things I'd change (e.g. allow quick deletes of e-mail from the notifications window, rather than having to open Mail), but for the most part I'm figuring it out as I go along.
I think tech writers have this need to try out every single feature to see how it works. The rest of us just figure out what we're going to use it for and go from there.
The old white man tweet is incredibly racist
Most of them bought apple watches ,

I wouldn't say 100%. They still have Dieter Bohn and Chris Ziegler, who are first-rate writers. I would have much preferred Dieter to handle the aWatch review and Nilay, who's done great MacBook reviews in the past, to handle the MacBook Zero.The Verge is 100% complete trash, and so is this guy.
I'm pretty sure if a white guy called someone an "old Indian man" he'd get fired instantly

Just scroll down on the notification and select "Trash."

After using the watch for about a week, I don't think the review was that far off in terms of its content. That's not to excuse his behavior on Twitter (and that scene in the bar was silly) but I think a lot of people went overboard condemning the review.
"The face of the Watch curves up off the sides, leaving a noticeable air gap above the display underneath.
"Apple has done an excellent job in optically bonding the sapphire to the OLED display without an air gap."
The thread that will never die
TheVerge's "definitive" review was a very clever (and mostly successful) attempt to put an early negative spin on the Apple Watch.
